- Manager insists team have belief despite 3-1 loss in Paris
- Rogers: ‘We’ve got the quality to turn things around’
Unai Emery insisted Aston Villa can overturn a two-goal deficit in their Champions League second leg with Paris Saint-Germain next Tuesday and reach the semi-finals. Emery said defeat “was not the best but not the worst” and acknowledged his former club showed their class after magnificent goals by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Désiré Doué and Nuno Mendes propelled PSG to a first-leg victory.
Mendes completed the scoring in second-half stoppage time but Emery was adamant the goal does not significantly alter Villa’s target. “The last goal is a little bit disappointing for us because it was in the last minute but it is not changing much, or our belief,” the Villa manager said.
